join-lemmy.org is promoting an instance with paedophilia
Loli is legally considered as paedophilia in europe and the US
It isn't though. Legally there's nothing to be done about it. Defederation and blocking it from the main list is certainly advisable, though.

Do you think a resturant refusing to serve black people would be okay?

Remember to support your instance and lemmy devs
I'll pay for instance hosting, for sure.

I thought so too, but it isn't - it's a server that hosts your pirated games and a client that downloads from the server and installs them. It's like Steam or Epic games, but for pirated games.

Privacy questions about Beehaw and Lemmy in general
If the data is federated, I would assume that any deletion request is not going to be honored by somebody.

Spez's AMA is live, the shitshow begins

Why would that be a serious problem? The code is open and it can be hosted by anyone. The moderators of a single instance are nearly meaningless to a federated system. That's the whole point.
To put it another way, what problems do you think the devs being tankies might cause?

Why would you see a headline about them paying out? The entire point is to pay so that nobody knows it happened.

Does the idea of this concern anyone else? Why is no one talking about it?
why is nobody talking about a fake image? hmm

Interesting difference from Reddit: Upvotes/Downvotes are not anonymous
Reply in thread
If they vote in a way I don't like, they're a bot. If they don't vote in a way that I like, also a bot. In fact, if they vote at all, probably a bot

I really like kbin.social, but it's hard for me to figure out how to start a new Threaded post. I can add a new "article" or "link", but what about just a text post?
Also I am not sure how my home feed is populated - I can subscribe to federated stuff and local stuff, but most of what I'm seeing is not from anything I've subscribed to. Is it more like r/popular?

If you are thinking about deleting your Reddit's history (comments, posts, etc), do it before the end of this month
Reply in thread
I agree - generally speaking they're almost certainly not actually deleting anything when they say they are, just flagging it as gone. And edits are probably stored as diffs. AND so many people have been scraping Reddit for long enough now that there's full copies of everything you've posted out there already.

What a terrible AMA lol. I'm not surprised but it's still somehow worse than I imagined it would be.

Is there a computer game, or a specific moment, a fight etc that you wish you could do fresh with no prior memory of it?
Most of the boss fights in MGS3, but I liked The End most of all

Can you see kbin posts/articles and subscribe to magazines (communities) from lemmy?
Reply in thread
Thanks. I thought nobody was even replying to my comments until I realized that notifications for replies to comments were off by default on kbin, lol.

So you're basically paying for a proxy for Google and Bing search?
